Thanks! after a test drive i cant believe what a difference the sway bars make. NO body roll at all and it seems like the steering is much more responsive. SWAY BARS FTW!!!!!

Very nice Wes!

Ahh... so hard to stay on my modding track when you start throwing up pictures of your sways and reminding me of the no body roll when I was in my friends STi.
